President's Message

At the Starzen Group, we created a new Management Philosophy in April 2024. In conjunction, we have established the Brand Vision to realize this new Management Philosophy as Itadakimasu—appreciate the food that gives you strength and energy; Arigato—express appreciation to bring happiness. Empowered by this vision, we are continuing to tackle challenges toward greater growth.

The environment around us continues to grow tougher and tougher. In addition to fluctuations in raw material and energy prices, as well as rising logistics and labor costs, addressing the movement toward a sustainable society is becoming an increasingly important issue. Meanwhile, the continued acceleration of digital technologies has provides us with more opportunities to re-examine the value of food in the real world and connections between people.

Since our founding, we have overcome numerous difficulties and grown while valuing a spirit of embracing new challenges and teamwork. Today, the role we at the Starzen Group must play is to contribute to society through food and create new value.
We want to expand the possibilities of food and deliver excitement to people all over the world. With this dream in our heart, we will continue to achieve sustainable growth without fear of change.

I humbly ask for your continued understanding and support as we move forward.
